Abstract
While there has been much work in the space of embodied intelligence, we as a field have struggled to define what exactly embodied intelligence is and how it should be used. In this paper, we propose that there are multiple types of embodied intelligence, and that these different types of embodied intelligence are suited to different types of tasks. We introduce a method for classifying tasks according to their objective and occurrence, and we describe how existing work in embodied intelligence fits into this framework. We hope that this proposed framework will initiate a discussion to more formally think about the role that embodied intelligence plays and the value that it brings to engineering and robotics.
